So glad that it's over...

Just tuned in to Hopes Blog after a long absence.
I must admit that there are as many opinions regarding the
recent election as there are people that you ask.
I for one, am glad that it is over.
The nonstop campaign phone calls.
The incessant tv commercials.
Here in Minnesota, the results for Senator
are still unclear. And the mud slinging spared noone.
Steer clear unless youwant to be splattered.
Like I said, I am just glad that it is over.

Hopefully, we can move forward as one and have positive
results for our country.

Hope says she becomes nostalgic for Fall in the Midwest.
Well, our Fall is becoming chilly. We have had some sleet in MN
and a dusting of shortlived snow.
However, the cool nights and sunny, but cool days are so refreshing.
I like to layer my clothes during this time of year. It can start out chilly in the
morning and be no-coat weather by 3pm.
Everything is crisp and the smells do seem to come alive (in a good way!)
It is a nice change of season for us. I rely on change of season...my clock is
just set that way.

Looking forward to a peaceful and united future. Cool, crips temps,too.

I just traveled to and from MN and I loved the crisp temps too. I even got to see some of that snow you mentioned! Now if that senatorial race could be resolved, all would be well with MN!

I just read your posting on the change of seasons. It was so well written and perfectly described the 'feeling'. Oh how I miss that. I do not miss the never ending grayness and frigid cold. And Miami in December is lovely.
